Overview

This page contains screen scribbles for the Editor GUI implemented in wcm.io for the Sling Context-Aware Configuration.

Basic concepts

The configuration editor does not allow to edit all configuration levels or fallback modes. It shows only the configuration for the current inner-most context path (this may be the current site, current language, current region etc.) and allows to edit it. Although the configuration itself is normally stored not inside the context content, the editor page is created there to automatically detect the matching context path. When writing back configuration still the ACLs of the configuration path apply.

Configuration overview

This screen is shown when the configuration editor is opening first time.

It shows:

• All single or list configuration names for which any configuration exists (on the current or any other inheritance of fallback level)
• A click on one of the configurations opens the detail view
• An add button allows to select from a list of configuration names existing in the system, but without existing configuration, and opens the same detail view when selected
